Since I was going to go out this time, and I had already spent all the money on me, I borrowed 10,000 yuan from my mother. But this is not a small amount, my mother did not agree at first, but my father made the decision, sent the money to me, and said earnestly: "Son, you are not too young, you know right and wrong." This money can be lent to you, but you can't use it for bad things, you know? ”

I was moved in my heart, nodded and said, "Don't worry, Lao Li." I'm measured. In addition, out of this 10,000 yuan, Yang Jiannan has to be given 5,000 yuan, and he can't let his family help in vain, and this round-trip ticket costs more than 3,000. ”

"Well, yes, if you owe a favor, you have to pay it back, so that you can have a clear conscience."

After talking to my father, I found the and gave him 5,000 yuan, but he didn't want to live or die, saying that he looked down on him by giving money. I'm a little funny in my heart, although the usually likes to do stupid things, but he is affectionate and righteous. But he can't be allowed to run in vain, not to mention that he has helped a lot in the past few days, and even makes people mistakenly think that it was his own father who died......

"Jiannan, you take the money first, I have other things to ask you to help with, this money should be regarded as the travel fee. Don't excuse yourself, or I'll be embarrassed to ask you for help next time. ”

"Okay, big brother, I'll take it."

After the accepted the money, I asked him to go to Qingtian City and inform Hua Miaoyin that there was an evil cultivator who was catching ghosts and monsters recently, and he picked on the ghost king level to start, so she should be careful......

……………………

The next day, at 3 p.m., I arrived at Jingshan International Airport.

When I saw Xu Ningrou again, I found that she had lost weight, and her lips were pale and her face was haggard. I felt a pain in my heart for no reason and asked, "What's wrong with you?" Sick? ”

Xu Ningrou didn't answer, but said, "Time is running out, let's leave as soon as possible." I used a trick to make others dress up as me, and I don't know how long I could hide it, and once I found out, the family would immediately chase after me. ”

It seems that something has happened to her family, and she has not seen her emaciated like this for a month. And she came out without hiding from her family this time, without any bodyguards, so you can see a lot of problems.

"Miss Xu, no matter where you want to go, I will accompany you."

Xu Ningrou's gaze softened: "Thank you." ”

I took Xu Ningrou's travel bag and asked as I walked out of the airport, "Miss Xu, where are you going this time?" ”

"Lanbei Mountains."

I thought for a moment and asked, "Isn't that a primeval forest?" Are we going deep into the mountains? Or just spin around the edges? ”

"Deep mountain, if you don't want to go, I don't force it." Xu Ningrou said, but her voice was full of exhaustion.

"No, Miss Xu, you misunderstood, the reason why I asked these is because if you go into the mountains, you have to bring some equipment. Such as tents, sleeping bags, ropes, daggers, etc. ”

"Huh? Sorry I just misunderstood you. But by what you mean, it seems to be very experienced? ”

I smiled and replied, "I can't talk about my experience, but I've been into the mountains a few times, and I have some experience in surviving in the wild." ”

"So I'm really looking for the right person?"

"Of course, you can just laugh secretly......"

Once in the city center, I found an outdoor store and bought a portable tent, sleeping bag, wire rope, magnesium ignition rods, and of course, a steel dagger!

The shopkeeper was a middle-aged man, full of yellow teeth, and when he heard me say that he wanted to buy a dagger, he mysteriously recommended the 'treasure of the town shop', saying that it was made of what kind of alloy, for American soldiers, three thousand handfuls. After haggling, I finally bought it for two hundred and eight.

Then, we took a taxi to the town near the 'Arashibei Mountain Range', found a hotel, and prepared to rest for the night before setting off tomorrow.

At dinner in the evening, Xu Ningrou asked me why I only bought a tent and a sleeping bag.

Since we were doing things separately, she was in charge of food and water, and I was in charge of outdoor items, so it was faster. But when she saw that there was only a tent and a sleeping bag, she couldn't help but ask.

I explained: "Miss Xu, there are usually wild beasts in the deep mountains, so you need to keep vigil, and the tent and sleeping bag are all prepared for you alone......"

……………………

The next morning, the two of us geared up and entered the mountains.

Xu Ningrou carried a normal travel bag, which was relatively light; I was carrying a tent, a sleeping bag, and a large duffel bag full of food and water except for a few clothes.

And the weight of these things is about fifty pounds.

For adults, it's neither light nor heavy. But if you have to travel a long way, it can be quite a challenge.

Xu Ningrou proposed to share the burden many times, but I refused, she frowned and said, "Don't be strong, okay?" Fifty catties is equivalent to the weight of a bag of rice, and even a well-trained bodyguard would not dare to say that he could carry a bag of rice for a day. If you're tired, I'll have to take care of you, it's a waste of time. ”

"Don't worry, Miss Xu." I tightened my backpack and said, "Due to regular exercise, my physique is not bad, this weight is completely bearable, if I can't hold it, I will say it......"

Choosing to enter the mountains during this season has both advantages and disadvantages. The good thing is that the temperature is now very low and there are no poisonous snakes and poisonous insects. The disadvantage is that the temperature difference between morning and evening is large, there are a few degrees above zero during the day, but it has to drop to a few degrees below zero at night, and the temperature difference is easy to breed bacteria, and it is easy to make people catch a cold.

Of course, with my physique, it is more difficult to catch a cold, but Xu Ningrou...... I can't say for sure.

After walking like this for about three hours, Xu Ningrou took out a hand-drawn map to watch, and at the same time glanced at me, and said: "The breath is even, there is no sweat, I underestimated you too much, I didn't expect that in addition to Taoism, your physical strength is so good." ”

I took a sip of water and said, "Of course, Taoist priests are a high-risk profession, if their skills are too poor, how can they deal with zombies?" Speaking of which, I came across a corpse the other day, and I was able to get it done in two seconds. ”

"Can you tell me?"

Since entering the mountain range, Xu Ningrou seems to be much more relaxed, and she is no longer as tired as she was yesterday.

I was also happy to talk to her, so I told the second uncle about it, and after Xu Ningrou heard it, she had an apologetic face: "I'm sorry, I knew that there was a funeral at your family, so I wouldn't bother you." ”

I hurriedly shook my head: "It doesn't matter, the funeral is over." Besides, I promised you a long time ago, how can I go back on it? ”

Xu Ningrou put down the map, with a hint of emotion in her eyes, and said, "What an interesting child." ”

I rolled my eyes, helpless.

Xu Ningrou showed a long-lost smile: "However, you have a mature ...... that does not match your age"

As soon as the words fell, a few gunshots suddenly sounded in the distance! Echo in the open forest! Xu Ningrou and I both had a change of complexion! It seems that there are other people in the Lanbei Mountain Range, and they are also carrying guns! Judging from the gunfire just now, the other party could not be a hunter, because the hunter would not hunt with a pistol.

"The sound of gunfire came from the side." I pointed to the right and said.

"Fortunately, our purpose is straight ahead, let's go quickly, so as not to run into them."

So we quickened our pace until six o'clock in the evening. Since it was already dark, I found a leeward place and set up my tent.

After eating something, Xu Ningrou took out the map and looked at it again. She didn't want to disclose her destination, and I didn't ask.

At night, when the temperature dropped below zero, I picked up some dry branches and leaves nearby, then took out a magnesium rod, slowly scraped off some powder with a blade, and landed on the toilet paper, and then with a quick stroke, the spark fell on the powder, which ignited instantly, and then I blew lightly to let the branches and leaves fully burn.

Seeing that I succeeded once, Xu Ningrou's eyes were full of brilliance, and she praised: "Skillful, how do you know so much?" ”

I replied, "Because I have been in the mountains a few times before, and there are demons with me, and they taught me." ”

"Are there ghosts this time?" Xu Ningrou asked as she looked around.

I shook my head, "No." You must be very tired after a day of traveling, rest early, I'll stay outside. ”

"Then I'm bothering you." Xu Ning thanked him softly, and then got into the tent.

I looked at the tent a little distracted, she must have something on her mind, no matter what, I will protect her......

……………………

Sitting by the campfire, I secretly ran the Changhong Xuangong, and with the operation of the true qi, the fatigue was swept away.

Throw dry branches into the fire from time to time in case the flame goes out.

In the middle of the night, I suddenly heard some voices in the distance, I suddenly opened my eyes and listened carefully, as if someone was talking, and at the same time there were footsteps approaching! Could it be the same people who shot during the day? I walked quickly to the tent and whispered, "Miss Xu, wake up, it seems that someone is coming, we must leave immediately!" ”

Within a few seconds, Xu Ningrou got out of the tent and asked vigilantly, "What's wrong?" ”

Three watches in the middle of the night, deep mountains and old forests, lonely men and widows, Xu Ningrou will inevitably think more, I don't explain, I just made a 'shhh' gesture and said: "Listen to ......"
